Long story short
don't buy this unit but read mor for the rest of my story.
I bought and installed this unit in my new home.
It takes 20 minutes to draw water for a bath that is straight hot water only.
If you are lucky you will have very warm bath.
Definitely not a hot muscle-soaking bath.
Highest temp I have recorded in 5 years is 115 degrees with 111 about average.
Subtract the time taken to fill the tub and heating the cast iron and this is not good.
Doing dishes is a pain in the butt.
You have to have the water running all the time to keep it warm enough to clean and rinse with.
Not very eco friendly as all that good water is running down the drain.
It broke under warranty and they sent a part. But it did not make things any better.
I had an electrician take it apart and it seems the motherboard has a burned out hypoflambulator or some such thing and for $275 + sh + tax Bosch will send me a new one.
Sad news is when I bought this unit nowhere on the unit or in the manual did it mention that..........
YOU CANNOT USE THIS UNIT IF YOUR INCOMING WATER IS BELOW 60 DEGREES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Mine is 49 degrees.
I mentioned this to the Bosch rep on the phone and basically they said it Sucks to be Me!
I have a slightly used Bosch unit for sale if any one is looking to buy one
